Once the weather breaks I have a ton of work to do before we launch.

1. Rip out cockpit carpeting and install new carpeting.
2. Install new helm seat and pedestal.
3. Install second battery and A/B switch.
4. Gelcoat repair on 3 dings.
5. Epoxy coat the bottom (the boat was always trailered before and has no
bottom paint)
6. Bottom paint the bottom
7. Install bimini.
8. Install new CD player/FM radio.

Items 3, 7 and 8 may wait till the boat is launched and dockside....it all
depends on how fast I get the other stuff done and if the weather
cooperates.

So how about you? What things do you have to do to your boat before
Spring
launch.

Ironically, I find myself sorta dreading spring/summer. I love having the
whole pond and dock to myself! Our next boat will have an enclosed cabin,
which will even more suitable for winter boating.

But in answer to your thread, I need to plumb hot water to the transom
shower. I did finally dial up my GPS navigational system, settling for
Nobeltec on my laptop.

It is nice to see how little I need to do to commission my boat in Spring.

1. Wash and Wash (I use Zaino Bros so it is very easy 2 hrs. max with a
few coffee and chat breaks)
2. Replace Impeller and Fuel Filter (less than 20 min)
3. Place key in ignition.
4. Turn key
5. Relax
